|
Looking back over the years |
|
Of all the things i've always meant to say |
|
But the words didn't come easily |
|
So many times through empty fears |
|
Of all the nights i tried to pick up the phone |
|
So scared of who might be answering |
|
You try to live your life from day to day |
|
But seeing you across the room tonight |
|
Just gives me away |
|
Chorus: |
|
Cause the heart won't lie |
|
Sometimes life gets in the way |
|
But there's one thing that won't change |
|
I know i've tried |
|
The heart won't lie |
|
You can live your alibi |
|
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise |
|
The heart won't lie |
|
Long after tonight |
|
Will you still hear my voice through the radio |
|
Old desires make us act carelessly |
|
Long after tonight, after the fire |
|
After the scattered ashes fly |
|
Through the four winds blown and gone |
|
Will you come back to me |
|
You try to love your life from day to day |
|
But seeing you across the room tonight |
|
Just gives me away |
|
Repeat chorus |
